英国《权利法案》背景：光荣革命
1688年，英国资产阶级和新贵族发动 的推翻詹姆斯二世的统治、防止天主 教复辟的非暴力政变。英国决定以法 律形式限制国王的权力，保证自己的 权力，于是在议会上、下两院共同召 开的全体会议上，向威廉和玛丽提出 了一个“权利宣言”.1689年10月，议 会通过了“权利宣言”并制订为法律， 是为《权利法案》。 这场革命未有流血，因此历史学家将 其称之为“光荣革命”。奠定了英国 君主立宪政体的理论和法律基础，确 立了议会高于王权的原则，具有宪法 的性质，标志着君主立宪制开始在英 国建立，为英国资本主义的迅速发展 扫清了道路。
By raising and keeping a standing army within this kingdom in time of peace without consent of Parliament, and quartering soldiers contrary to law; By causing several good subjects being Protestants to be disarmed at the same time when papists were both armed and employed contrary to law;
The monarch is the personal embodiment（化身） of the British government,and a symbol of Brith unity representing the continuity of the whole political system.So the stability of the British government owes mush to the monarchy.
